[Press Release] Are you ready for the end of support for CentOS 7? We offer a server migration solution to an alternative OS

Beyond Co., Ltd. offers server migration solutions to alternative operating systems following the end of support for CentOS 7 on June 30, 2024, and recommends migrating to an alternative operating system

End of support for CentOS 7

CentOS 7, which is widely used by businesses, caused a big stir when it was announced that support for it would end on June 30, 2024, and the end of support is fast approaching

There are several ways to deal with the situation when support for CentOS 7 ends, but if you want to use an OS that is as compatible with the previous CentOS 7 as possible, you should consider migrating to an alternative OS to CentOS

The larger the system, the longer the transition period will be, so it is necessary to consider this early and respond flexibly

What are the risks after CentOS 7 support ends?

Even after support for CentOS 7 ends, it is possible to continue using a server environment using CentOS 7, but you will be exposed to various risks, such as the following:

- The risk of attacks increases because security patches and updates will not be provided. -
Fixes for OS bugs and feature updates will no longer be provided.
- The operating system may become unusable due to software compatibility issues.
- Official documentation will no longer be updated, and expert support will no longer be available.

If it is difficult to migrate immediately, you can use paid extended support or security products, but these measures are only temporary, so ultimately it is essential to migrate to an OS that continues to be supported
